Woa, hey, I probably shouldn't reply to this list for this, since it's so
off-topic, but I don't think we have a traffic problem. I've been thinking
about this problem myself, as I have a friend who's in this position.

I got to thinking, and well, in terms of backward browser compatibility,
it's probably more work than it's worth, but would it work in NSC 4.5 (or
nsn 4.08) to simply put it into a fixed-positioned div? example:

(in the .css file)
#bg { position: fixed; top: Xpx; left: Xpx (or X%) ]

(in the .html file)

<div id="bg"><img src="bg.png" alt="stuff" width="x" height="x"></div>

The thing is, that's a CSS2 concept. And yes, I am kinda rusty on working
with CSS, so I don't remember if fixed-positioned div's use top, or
top-margin, but anyone who's worked with CSS should know what I mean. I'm
too lazy to test this in Navigator myself, and then another problem arises
in that older browsers will simply display the image as they would any
regular image, not a bg image.

As much as CSS is an aging standard, I fear it is STILL a thing of the
future. :(
